STOKER  just like older British sports cars, this is a great game.....when it works! On Leopard 10.5.6 at least I keep bringing up the Dashboard when I try clicking on cards, and it can go on that way for quite a spell. Any fixes for this problem?

GERMANO60  TO THE DEVELOPER OF FREECELL

Hello I developped the Italian localization for this very nice application. I've been trying sending the localization package to the developer's official e-mail several times but I'm always returned with a "Delivery Failure" message. I even tried using a different mail account of mine, nope.

Apparently, the developer's address reported in the official website (the one accessable through the "More Info" link above) is either broken or blocking messages.

How can I contribute with my (little) work?

DIETER  My wife just aquired an Imac G5 and is now in the process of laerning all its great features. What she did miss from her previous PC was the use of card games such as Freecell. Your PC-equal version is a real hit with her and after a long day at work makes the Mac learning curve at home a lot easier for her. This - your work - is well done. Thank you.

Would you consider writing a Spider Solitaire for Mac that is PC-equal? And, perhaps also a Hearts game?

ANONYMOUS  Thanks for creating this app.

That said, do you think you could wait six hours, or count to ten, or something that would take you a similar amount of time, before posting an update. That would give you a chance to look it over and fix all your nittering little details.

ALISDAIR MCDIARMID  Thank-you for your very kind words.

I have released three versions of Freecell in three days, not eighteen hours. I would expect users of the game to be glad that I'm fixing bugs rather than leaving them in the game.

If you don't want to download the latest version, feel free to ignore it.

AET  Ditto that, thanks for the releases.

I've never understood why people feel obligated to download the latest version yet complain about it. It takes a lot more effort to release a new version than to download it.

MR. X  [Status bar showing time elapsed and moves made]

What if we just wanted to waste a little time without being pressured by a competitive timer?

I Looked at v1.3 to see the difference. v1.3 seems to know how many games of FC have been played. It suggested a number greater than 230 million. How would it know? Why would it know? Who would know it?

ALISDAIR MCDIARMID  Thank-you for the suggestion. I'll add a feature in the next release to hide the status bar.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say regarding Freecell 1.3. If you would like to report a bug, please send me an email describing what you did, what you expected, and what actually happened.
